Decent round for the money

First time playing this course and the other reviews said the course was in good shape, which I don't totally disagree with but the fairways are dry and hard and the greens are hard offering no check. The layout of the course was a little wonky from hole to hole, but overall, for the money, it was a good round.

Way overpriced. The course is not very well maintained. You hit off dirt a lot, even in the fairways.

Ok Course

I have been playing here for 40+ years. Layout is decent with a couple of challenging holes. The history and designers of the course are very interesting and make it fun to play. However it is extremely overpriced. You can find a much better course at better price in may areas of metro.

Good - But...

Overall, the course was enjoyable to play. Not the most challenging course, but in good condition and well kept. Greens were challenging as all had more than one slope to them and all were very fast on the downhill. Only downside to this course is that there isn't a driving range for warm-up. I will play there again.

Not in good shape and not friendly staff

Course was pretty beat up in a lot of spots, wouldn't call most of the green fringes "fringes", and they were re sodding one hole that had been turned into a par 3. Lots of staff but none of them were very friendly or helpful.

North Fulton

We were the third group off the first tee on Sunday morning. We teed off 20 minutes late and the round took 5 hours! I would expect when I sign up for "Fast Play" the play is fast. The course sends the nine hole people off #10, so it slows down significantly when you make the turn.

Although they're reconstructing the cart path on #3, the course and greens were in great shape. The pace was somewhat slow though.

Good public option near the city

Too many reviews of Atlanta courses mention great public options around town. As an out of towner, most that I found looked to be about 1+ hour in travel distance. I realize that in Atlanta this may be reasonable, but when I wanted to get in one more round before my flight it didn't work. This course was a good option without being too far away. Not an extremely tough test (128 slope I think), but conditions were reasonable. A little pricey for what you are actually getting, but not bad.

Pace of play was painful

They had diffinetly overbooked the course. The pace of play on the front nine was 3 hrs. The course is badly in need of major drainage work, fairways were wet (cart path only) even though it hasn't rained in several days.

Geat layout, especially for a muni

Geat layout, especially for a muni - once home to a pro tour event, some seventy years ago. Hilly, with elevation changes. Scenic setting in neighborhood park. Conditions are typically pretty good, course is typically pretty crowded. #18 is one of tougher par 4s anywhere.

This course has serious pace of play problems

I have played this course many times, and I have never teed off on my actual tee time. They do not regulate tee times/groups at all, and the first tee is always backed up. We waited behind six groups to tee off on number one. The first tee is not the only problem though. We were on the course for 5 hours and only got through 16 holes.

In a pinch

Greens keeper place cup in unreasonable spots for the speed of greens. On 12 and 18, I putted from below the cup, my ball stopped within 6 inches of cup, then rolled back off the green.

Don't know why people like this course???

As an Atlanta native, I understand that is one of the earlier city courses, but beyond that, I have interest in returning to this course. I don't believe there is a single near-level lie out there beyond some of tee boxes. On top of that, of the four times I have played here, the greens are very fast with dome-like greens where hole placements at its peak like a volcano. Unless North Fulton plans to give away a U.S.Open trophy after every round, I am not interested in playing gimmick golf.

Worse round ever

The course was in great condition. However, we were stuck behind "regulars" whom the ranger would not push along. The course was wide open but it took 5hrs to play because these bums thought they were at East Lake playing for the Players Championship.

Nice Layout

The course has a great lay out and requires players to work the ball in both directions.
One thing to pay attention to is the landing areas.
Greens were very fast and hard throughout the round.

Great Course

I've played this course literally 100's of times. I contend it is one of the best courses in Atlanta and it never gets old. Almost every hole can "bite" you and I believe the course plays longer than it's length. Overall, North Fulton will challenge you as a golfer and the scenery is not so bad either.

Good course

Course and facilities are a good value for the money. Especially if you score tee times later in the afternoon. Service is hit or miss. Clerks at the counter are rude at times, and not the most service minded employees. I go for the golf though, and the course offers a good variety of settings to help with your game.
